Assignments:
All assignments should reflect the highest quality work. Work should be complete and neat, or it will not be accepted.
Completing Assignments:
1. All assignments should contain a title, name, class period, and date in the heading. Papers with no name are impossible to enter in my grade book. I will ask during class if the paper belongs to a student, if no one responds, the paper will be thrown away.
2. Homework will be checked at the beginning of the period. LATE ASSIGNMENTS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FOR FULL CREDIT! Any assignments not completed at the beginning of the period when we are handing it in will be considered late.
3. Homework assignments will be collected at the end of each unit for point compilation, so it is important to stay organized and not lose assignments.
Make-Up Work:
1. Make-up work will be accepted for excused absences only and it is the STUDENT’S RESPONSIBILITY to obtain any assignments missed.
2. Make-up homework is due the day after a student returns to class following their absence. They must see me at the beginning of the period with the missed assignment to get the appropriate make up date.
3. All tests must be made up by the appropriate day when student returns to class after an absence or a zero will be given…It is the students responsibility to make up work missed during this class period in the appropriate amount of time.
4. Excessive absences on test days can result in a harder test than the original.
Grading Criteria:
Grading is done on a total point system. Total points come from the areas of daily work, quizzes, class participation, worksheets, labs, lab reports and tests.
The grading scale is as follows:
A 100-95 B 94-87 C 86-79 D 78-71 F 70-0
· Grades will be rounded up to the nearest percentage if students have helped other students during the quarter and written about it at the end of the quarter.
· To avoid penalty, all make up work must be finished as outlined in your agenda
· Make up work not completed in allowed time is listed as incomplete.
· Incomplete work will receive a 0%, however all incomplete work must be completed at a level that would otherwise be of passing quality in order to prevent the overall class from being incomplete.
Cheating and Violating Testing Conditions:
Cheating and any violation of established testing conditions is absolutely not tolerated. On the first occasion a zero will be given on the test or assignment and your parents will be notified. On the second occasion the student will be dropped from the class. This includes copying homework.
